Dear Parents of Freaky Friday Technicians,

We are happy that you and your student are willing to help continue our journey of excellence!  This is a busy schedule, but we know it will be well worth it!  

Below are the details for participation, so please read this contract carefully so you can support your students to the best of your ability.


ELIGIBILITY: Students are required to keep grades passing. If they have 2 or more F's in any of their classes, they will be placed on probation and will be unable to participate in crew for a week. If they are out for more than one week, they may need to be replaced. Please encourage students to utilize their time wisely. I will encourage them on my end, as well. While the show is important, academic success is paramount.


CLOTHING: Each technician will be required to wear work clothes during any work call (Closed toed shoes, paint clothes, hair ties, no jewelry, no baggy clothes)


CONDUCT: Out of respect and safety for the cast, crew, and directors, any form of horse-play, loitering, or inappropriate use of the theater space/materials will not be tolerated.  Friends and family not partaking in the production are not allowed on stage, backstage, in the shops, or in the green room for their own safety.


SCHEDULE: Most weekday crew calls start at 3:40 and end at 5:30PM. Technicians will take time to clean up trash, discarded materials or other mess that has been made during that call.  If a technician forgets to clean his/her mess the T.D reserves the right to hold the student’s dismissal until said mess is clean. A detailed calendar of which crew is to be called and when will be present on the callboard to the left of the theater classroom and uploaded to the Grandview Performing Arts webpage.
 

ACTIVITY FEE: Each crew member will be required to pay a $30.00 activity fee. You may pay via credit card on the Grandview webpage by clicking on the following link:

With the exception of tickets, this will be the only fee required by cast members. Ticket purchasing details are forthcoming. Assistance for activity fees may be available for families in financial crisis. Please let us know ASAP if this is the case



ADDITIONAL INFO: Due to time constraints there will be Saturday calls in October and November for certain crews.

• A detailed calendar of which crew is to be called and when will be present on the callboard to the left of the
        theater classroom.  
• Any missed tech crew calls without notification is reason for dismissal.  Any excessive absenteeism is
        reason for dismissal.
• Every effort will be made to stick to the rehearsal schedule.  Adjustments may be needed as we go.
• The Show Run Crew will be announced on November 1st. This crew will be backstage for the run of the
        show and is an earned position. The schedule for these students in the last two week prior two the show will
        shift into later evening rehearsals.
